for pal tv, it should be 720x576

but very often they broadcast in a lower resolution.

It is a complicated subject. take a look at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-definition_television

HDTV is 720p and 1080p

SDTV is 480p(NTSC) or 576p(PAL)

HDMI is the connector/input for HDTV tv's

LCD and plasma have nothing to do the the resolution.

Your TV will be 576p (or is it 576i - cant really remember)

The i and p refer to whether it is interlaced or progressive scan
